305-024-555-508

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC 305-024-555-508 is a standard card edge connector featuring 24 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration. It utilizes a 3.96 mm (0.156 inch) contact spacing and accepts printed circuit boards with a nominal thickness of 1.57 mm (0.062 inch). The component employs gold-plated copper alloy contacts rated for 5 A current, housed in a green thermoplastic polyester insulator. Designed for vertical panel mounting via solder pin termination, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Dual-edge female contact design accommodates non-specified board edges
• Low-profile insulator body construction
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable conductivity

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Panel-mounted electronic interconnects
• Industrial control system backplanes
• Standard card edge module integration

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact mechanical dimensions and plating specifications. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB thickness of 1.57 mm. Confirm that the vertical panel mount style aligns with the assembly requirements. Cross-reference the RoHS status if environmental compliance is mandatory for the end application.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-row connection with 3.96 mm pitch is required for panel-mounted applications. The 24-position count suits moderate-density signal routing. Verify that the 5 A current rating meets the electrical load requirements. Ensure the vertical orientation fits the enclosure constraints compared to straight PCB mount alternatives.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 series of standard card edge connectors. The series offers various position counts and mounting styles. The 305-024 variant specifically provides a compact dual-row solution. It shares common material properties with other models in the family, such as thermoplastic insulation and gold contact finishes.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include EDAC part numbers within the same 305 series offering identical 24-position dual-row configurations. Verify matching 3.96 mm spacing and 1.57 mm board thickness acceptance before substitution.
